Ankylosing spondilitis (AS for short) is a chronic form of arthritis known to affect up to 1 in 200 people (over 1 million sufferers in the USA alone). Ankylosing Spondilitis: the Facts by Muhammad Asim Khan, MD is the first mass produced book to be published in English on this important disease, it provides clear and accessible information on treatment, diagnosis, genetic counselling, and daily life for patients with this illness.
Professor Muhammad Asim Khan is one of the leading experts in the world on AS, while also suffering from it. This combination of scientific knowledge and personal experience of a debilitating disorder results in a unique book which is invaluable for sufferers wishing to know more about their condition, and for those that share their lives. There is newly available highly effective treatment for AS, although no cure has yet been found. Early diagnosis and proper medical management is important in reducing the risk of disability and deformity.
The book has been translated into other languages, including Japanese, Persian and Portuguese. Spanish translation is in process.
